In the materials science practical courses (WP1.2 and WP9.2), four practical courses must be completed per semester. At present, students can choose from the following experiments:
- Inorganic chemistry
- Physical chemistry
- Physics (gold nanostars)
- Crystallography (powder diffraction)
- Crystallography (scanning probe methods)
- Crystallography (neutron diffraction)
Additional experiments in limited capacity for students of the Master Geomaterials:
- Mineralogy (microprobe analysis) Lecture: 24.4., 9:30 am, room C307, practice: in groups of 4 by arrangement
- Mineralogy (Raman spectroscopy)
- Mineralogy (thermal analysis)
The following conditions must be observed:
The practical experiments are to be completed parallel to the lectures. Appointments need to be arranged directly with the respective supervisor (see below).
Appointments need to be arranged directly with the supervisor (see below for contact information).
Unless otherwise agreed, all experiments are carried out in groups of four with a constant composition. The experiments usually take one full day; about 3 additional days are planned for the evaluation and written elaboration. Instructions for the experiments must be collected from the experiment supervisors and read through before the experiments begin.
The supervisors conduct an introductory or final colloquium on the respective experiment. Successful participation in the experiment and colloquium is noted on a running sheet (Laufzettel).
After successful performance, a graded certificate is awarded by the lecturer noted on the running sheet, which is valid as proof of performance in the minor subject Materials Science.
Experiment workflow: After registering and making an appointment, students will receive the experiment instructions. The experiments are carried out directly after the successful oral colloquium.
The following lecturers will supervise the individual experiments. Please contact these assistants personally as a formed group and make an appointment for an experiment:
